Review Customizations (Old E-mail in Web Browser)

StudentsEmployees

Your e-mail messages will be migrated but any configuration changes made within Webmail (mail.troy.edu) will not be transferred. Prior to migration we encourage you to review the following within Webmail and to copy the information or make notes so you can recreate them in Office 365:

Contacts

Calendar Events

Tasks

Message Filters/Rules

Automatic Forwards

Signatures

Similar features setup within a desktop client such as Outlook will be unaffected. However, they will be associated with your old account so they will need to be modified or re-created to work with the Office 365 account.
